There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I'm going to go ahead and mirror what about half the reviews I've seen here and on Newegg have said; it gets hot. Hotter than it really feels like it should. Some people haven't had issues and I think they've won the Silicon Lottery and I am very jealous of them. I, however, am a huge loser in the lottery I feel. With a Corsair H105 I'm seeing around 36-40C idle temps and at 100% load... Well I can't really tell how high up it can really go because when I fire up Prime95 with small FFT's the temps go straight up to 100C and I have to cancel the test within seconds. When running in-place FFT's I see around 77-80C. Now granted I HAVE had my H105 for around 3 years now so it's possible it's not having fun working with my motherboard or the pump is going bad and I do plan on replacing it soon, but in the mean time I really don't think these temps are normal at all. Part of the problem could be the mobo ( GIGABYTE AORUS GA-Z270X-Gaming K7 Gaming Motherboard LGA1151 Intel Z270 2-Way SLI ATX DDR4 Motherboard for reference) delivering too much power to the CPU, and some people have said that driver updates fix this problem and I really should have done that before this review so I will update later if that DOES fix it. Because of this issue I've been unable, out of fear, to overclock at all though I'm sure outside of stress tests I wouldn't have to worry about it overheating much while gaming or day to day use.
The other issue I've had is also related to temperature. While idling I periodically would see vastly different temperatures on each core. And when I say vastly, I mean the difference between Core 0 being 35C and Core 1 being 65C. This would happen randomly when running programs OR idling and would lead to a huge annoyance; my case fans turning up to compensate for just a few seconds then winding down. Not the biggest annoyance but I've heard others talking about this and I believe I've found a solution. After disabling the onboard graphics, the mobo option to deliver power to it was still set on. Using the Gigabyte App Center utility Easy Tune I turned it down and am no longer seeing this issue, so yay for that.
Overall I'm very pleased with this product, despite it's temp issues. These issues may seem huge but in all honesty I never see temps higher than 65C while doing anything other than stress tests and my problems could stem from mobo issues but none of these have caused me to regret my purchase. I struggle whether or not to rate this at 4 or 5 stars due to my issues, but mine aren't as extreme as I may have portrayed them and most others don't seem to be experiencing this level of temperature and that leads me to a solid 5 star review.
I love this CPU, as things are much faster and smoother with better frame rates, especially when paired with NVIDIA GeForce Titan X Pascal 12GB GDDR5X (900-1G611-2500-000) . However, be warned that this processor does run warmer than some other CPU's I have had. I am saying this based on my setup alone having a water block on the CPU and using a very large case with 5 case fans and 4 additional fans on the radiators. I previously had the Intel Core i7-5930K Haswell-E 6-Core 3.5GHz LGA 2011-v3 140W Desktop Processor BX80648I75930K which ran around 30-35 degrees Celsius on average with no high heat spikes, as cores where being used at 25-50% load (May all be because of it having 6 cores instead of 4).
My case and fan setup:
--- Case: Corsair Obsidian 900D CC-9011022-WW System Cabinet Tower (Black)
--- Fans: Corsair ML120 Pro LED, Blue, 120mm Premium Magnetic Levitation Cooling Fan CO-9050043-WW .
This processor, however, has heat spikes up into the 50-53 degrees Celsius range, with an average of 60 degrees Celsius for the whole CPU package when being stressed tested. I currently have a two water loops for my system, with one dedicated for CPU and the other for GPU. I keep this CPU cool with XSPC Raystorm D5 EX240 Water Cooling Kit , which uses pretty large diameter hosing-at least compared to the hosing on my GPU that uses EKWB. Due to the fact that I bought this CPU because i upgraded my motherboard, as my other died after year, I probably be moving to a custom loop by EKWB (As they make great products and have an easy to use 'Configuration Tool' for assisting with ALL the parts you need for your water cooling loop). One of the biggest reasons being my new motherboard has an already built in EKWB for the CPU Regulators, which i want to add to my CPU loop (MB: ASUS MAXIMUS IX FORMULA LGA1151 DDR4 DP HDMI M.2 Z270 ATX Motherboard ). I even may add one of their water blocks for the RAM as they make a very nice and easy way to do so. Once I add my new loop, which will use a three 120mm fan radiator, i will update my review about my new average temperatures.
EDIT: I'm building a new one for myself, and chose to go with a 6800K for just a little more money than this chip. Slower clock speed, but rated higher by every major player in the business. This is still a superb chip, but limited in some ways (single core speed NOT being one of them!). The 6800k out-benched the 7700k,7740k,7800x and 7900x. Also (which I also have all of) the 6850K, 5930K, and 5820K. If you need a dragster, this or the 7740K IS the CPU. If you need a Ferrari, shop around and do your homework. I just spent $33 more for a Ferrari.
Top reviews from other countries
LO BUENO:tiene un buen rendimiento tanto en trabajo de sobremesa y Gaming siempre y cuando tenga una tarjeta de video dedicada tiene una buena frecuencia base (4.2GHz) y da un buen rendimiento de trabajo.
LO MALO: este procesador no incluye un disipador por lo cual ya debes contar con uno o al menos pensar en alguno bueno ya que es algo caliente este procesador, con un buen disipador puede llegar máximo a los 74°C con overclock a 4.5 GHz con una carga total de trabajo.
•• Current Overclock ••
I'm currently rocking my Z270-A mobo's built in turbo 4.9ghz overclock (haven't bothered manually OC'ing yet), and temps are fantastic. Keep in mind, I went all out and bought an H100 v2 watercooler, which I can also highly recommend. It's worth every penny.
•• Addressing The Bad Reviews ••
I'll never understand reviews that drop two lines and say something like: "runs really hot, even with my great watercooling setup." First off, that gives me very limited information. I don't know about his building history. Is it his first time? Did a friend build it for him? Is he overclocking WRONG? Did he get it all put together from a store, and the employees messed something up?
The reason I say this is because my experience has been the complete opposite. My buddy recently purchased the same CPU with an NZXT watercooler, and he runs around 30 degrees idling in a hot, Calgary summer. Similarly, mine runs at 29 when not under load and fluctuates between 55-65 when playing games like the Witcher 3 with Ultra everything (and maxed hairworks). It sounds like that person's cooling system either isn't actually working or there's a major thermal paste issue... or a "no thermal paste issue."
•• Conclusion ••
If you want a processor that will crush triple A gaming titles for the next 5 years, this is an excellent buy. When the i9 and above drops, the 7700k's price may fall even lower... so keep your eyes open for sales. I couldn't be happier with this processor.
